Class Descriptions (Lessons will meet 10 times)

The skills in each level are presented in a logical progression. It is not uncommon for swimmers to stay at a particular level several times before successfully completing the class. It is natural for swimmers to develop skills and comfort levels at different paces.

Thunder and Lightning

If thunder and / or lightning are spotted during a lesson, we NEED to get out of the water immediately! While we are out of the water, we will talk about safety and/or practice land drills.

Class Cancellations

Due to the ever-changing weather in Wisconsin, occasionally a class may have to be cancelled. If you are wondering if classes will be held that day, please call us at the pool at 375-5884, ½ hour before your child’s class time. Our staff or a recorded message will keep you updated.
